Teen Beds - The Solutions you Need to Know About

Teen Beds That Do More: Why Storage Beds & 4ft Beds Are Total Game-Changers

Let’s be real — teenagers are busy. School, friends, hobbies, TikTok scrolls, random snack breaks... their rooms need to keep up. And at the centre of all that chaos? The bed.

Not just for sleeping anymore, a teenager’s bed is also the HQ for chilling, scrolling, napping, studying (occasionally), and probably hiding snacks. So, it makes sense to choose a bed that works harder — and smarter.

Enter the storage bed — and its best sidekick, the 4ft small double.

Beds That Hide the Mess (So You Don’t Have To)

Let’s be honest: teenagers aren’t exactly famous for keeping their rooms spotless. That’s where storage beds come in. Indeed, they make it easy to look tidy without actually trying. Magical, right?

 Drawer Divan Beds

Drawer divans are basically the bed version of having secret storage. They look simple on the outside but come with built-in drawers that are perfect for:

• Stashing clean clothes (or hiding the ones you were meant to fold)

• Tossing extra bedding or pillows

• Hoarding snacks (we won’t tell)

And the best part? You can pick different fabrics and styles to match your vibe. Minimalist? Cool. Bold colour? Go for it. It's your bed, your rules. Most of our divan beds are available with either 2 drawers or 4 drawers to suit your needs.

 Ottoman Beds

Now, if you really want to go big on storage, ottoman beds are next-level genius. The entire mattress lifts up (with zero effort — thanks, hydraulics!) to reveal one giant hidden space underneath. In fact ottoman beds hold up to 4 times the amount of storage a four drawer divan bed! Impressed? We thought you would be.

Think of it as a secret base for:

• Sports gear

• Suitcases

• Out-of-season clothes

• Anything you want out of sight, out of mind

It’s basically the Narnia of beds — minus the snow and talking animals.

The 4ft Bed: Small Upgrade, Big Comfort

If your teen has outgrown their single bed (or just likes to starfish), it might be time to size up. But not all the way to a double — we’re talking about the 4ft small double.

Here’s why it’s chef’s kiss:

• More space than a single = better sleep (and more room to roll around while binge-watching Netflix)

• Takes up less room than a standard double — ideal for smaller bedrooms

• Still fits storage bases like divans and ottomans — so you don’t lose out on space-saving power

It's that perfect middle ground between kid-size and grown-up luxury.

What to Think About Before You Buy

Buying a bed might not be as exciting as shopping for clothes, but get it right, and you’ve got the ultimate sleep + storage + chill zone.

✔️ Bedroom Size

Make sure there’s room for drawers to open or for the ottoman top to lift. (Avoid bumping into walls, desks, or... random piles of stuff.)

✔️ Storage Needs

Drawer divans = quick access.
Ottoman beds = maximum hiding power.
Pick what fits your life best.

✔️ Style Points

Pick a colour or fabric that actually feels like you. Teens: make your room a space you love. Parents: maybe don’t choose the bed for them — just a thought.

✔️ Built to Last

A good quality bed will last through the teenage years and beyond — into uni or their first flat. So, it's not just a bed — it's an investment in future comfort.

Takeaway - Why These Beds Are a Win

•  Storage beds = clutter control (aka fake cleanliness)

•  4ft beds = extra room without stealing the whole bedroom

•  Smart choices = happy teens, tidier rooms, and fewer arguments

So whether your teen’s bedroom is tiny or they just need a bed that pulls double duty, storage beds and 4ft options are total lifesavers.
